The nature of today’s
network security threats has evolved. While basic
L2-4 firewall functionality is still a mandatory
element of network security, new breeds of dynamic
attacks are wreaking more havoc than ever before.
Not only can these attacks render a traditional
firewall useless, they also require a constantly
updated attack database that guarantees protection.
And, they absolutely must have a hardware platform
that can withstand the rigors of real-time intrusion
prevention while maintaining strong levels of performance.
